Breaking Into Your Own Car

Have you ever wondered how to get your keys out of a locked car?  Well, for starters, if this is something you tend to do, get a Honda.  They are literally the easiest cars to break into, which is why they are the #1 car to be stolen or broken into in the United States, specifically the Honda Civic if I remember right.  But realistically, breaking into cars is probably not a skill many people should really know, because not many people are only going to use it for their own cars.  So the best thing to do in that is to call a locksmith.  If you have one of the harder locks to open, it may be a challenge.  So don’t bother with the cops.  They usually break your locks and everything anyway.  But get a seasoned professional locksmith that actually knows what he’s doing.

God

This is a question I hear a lot of relgiious people asking and even non religious people.  When it’s not religious people or even atheists, I wonder about how strong their belief in no god is, because obviously you have to believe in something to question whether that force may be positive or malevolant.  In some cases, they hope that god is behind all the bad things that happen in thier lives, because that means he also must be behind all the good things and there must be some bigger picture.  Me, I find it more comforting to believe that the here and now is all there is, and obviously the past and the future, but logical things that can be proven and cited.  and frankly, to blame some outside source for all your joys and misfortunes, isn’t that just shirking responsibility?  I mean if you abuse your kids, obviously it’s your own fault.  if you were abused as a kid, it was your parent at that time’s fault, but even as an adult you can seek therapy to avoid becoming the same parent you hated.  I believe in personal responsibilty.  I mean with cancer, something people suffer on quite a frequent basis, there are a lot of possible causes.  there are people that do their best and still get it early, which sucks, and there are those who smoke, drink, etc all their lives and never suffer one bout.  That sucks.  But in reality, for most people, you getting certain diseases will depend on how you take care of your body, general rule there.  And frankly, having some level of control in my own life is somewhat appealing to me.

Chrysler Declaring Bankruptcy

So now, Chrysler is officially ready to declare bankruptcy. Didn’t we just bail them out a few weeks ago? Actually, we bailed major car companies out a few years go and then again a few weeks ago. Chrysler bankruptcy is now a 95% likelihood. I mean I like the socialism factor that they claim Obama is pushing. But part of bailing somebody out is that they change their ways. If the government has to be updated and intervene in their obviously flawed business plans, that’s part of the deal. Now keep in mind, I would rather they let them go out of business. I mean we don’t bail out a weight loss program no matter how they are supposedly “contributing” to the economy with jobs. When they find themselves needing to be bailed out once, let alone twice or three times, they are a drain on the economy, not the other way around. I mean we don’t bail Microsoft out, because they don’t need to be bailed out! We actually forced them to split to avoid becoming a monopoly, as if they weren’t already, because they were making too much money. How does a company make too much money to keep being productive? I mean the president of google doesn’t even technically get paid a salary. He gets paid through his stocks and bonds. If he needs money, he sells one of them off. His official salary, $1. Hence why google is hiring. Sadly, Microsoft actually did report its first quarterly decline in revenue in 23 years, basically ever. But they are not being asked to be bailed out. They are not being bailed out like the banks or Chrysler and then having the money suddenly mysteriously disappear, go unaccounted for. The way I figure it, we have so far bailed out car companies and banks, and the money has disappeared, been entirely wasted, isn’t going to come back. It makes me angry, and though I think we shouldn’t have bailed them out in the first place, because we don’t bail out other companies that go under such as a weight loss program, they should at least be accountable for what is done with that money, reporting to someone. Is that really so much to ask?

No More Scapegoating

Sometimes I could swear that they blame race for everything. Race causes you to be fat, race causes you to be skinny, race causes your skin to be oily or dry, race causes your skin to sunburn all the time, race causes you to be tall, race keeps you from growing real muscles, race this, race that. Race is not determined by genetics! IF you were to look at the genes of a white person next to a black person, you could not determine which was which. You could probably determine which one was tall, which one had certain family health records, blood type, stuff like that. But race is not genetically defined! Now acne is genetically defined. What you can use to treat it, not so much. Whether you are black, white, brown, yellow, green, or purple, you can use certain products like Acnepril. Most of the time what you use depends partly on your skin type. But that has nothing to do with race, but rather you. You could have oily, dry, red, etc skin no matter what your racial background! Now if you happen to be allergic to one of the ingredients or your body just doesn’t like something, it might not work. But it has nothing to do with your race! If you have a heart condition, the kind of medications that might be effective for you will probably depend partly on your family history, specific heart condition, eating habits, level of possible obesity, severity of the disease, etc, but not race! Frankly, I just get so sick of people blaming everything on well it’s bad genetics or it’s just my racial make up. The worst one for me is when they try to say well I’m fat because of my genes. I’m sorry, it’s easier for some people to lose weight yes. But ultimately, in 99% of the cases, you are fat because you eat crappy food, don’t exercise enough, and spend too much time for your body type sitting around. We all wish that we could have metabolism so high that we could down 3 extra large premium pizzas a day and still lose weight. But that doesn’t mean we should eat like that! Wishing won’t make it true. More recently, people have begun to blame it on their race. The only one I can understand is if people blame their acne on genes or hormones or something. You can definitely have a family history of higher excess oil production in your skin, raging hormones, worse acne. You can have family histories and genetic histories of certain types of acne outside of acne vulgaris that can produce severe disfigurement, etc. And for the ones outside acne vulgaris, such as acne conglobata, I honestly don’t know if anything, even Acnepril or Accutane can help you then.

Abusive Relationships

Do some women like that element of danger, that element of a “manly man” to the point that they will stay in an abusive relationship. Do they see it as that is the way it has to be to the point that they will actually turn down a nice guy, which can be like a safe diet pill? You’re not protected, if that’s what you’re thinking. I mean he may keep everyone else away from you, including the family members and friends that love you. But he is the one inflicting harm on you. So is he going to protect you from himself? We have seen it a million times. Sometimes, we have seen it in celebrities like Alec Baldwin and Kim Basinger I think it was and more recently, Rihanna and Chris Brown. Now Basinger left Baldwin, and we have all heard the tapes of how verbally abusive he can be to their daughter to say the least. But Rihanna went back to Chris Brown apparently for a period of time. In essence, her statements were like blaming the victim. Many women who have never been in that kind of relationship would say well why don’t you just leave, that’s ridiculous, and it is. And sometimes, we see it in our friends, family members, etc. If we grow up with it, with our parents, sometimes we don’t even recognize it, thinking that’s just the way it is. But most of us know. In a way, I can see why they stay sometimes. It may be due to reasons of insecurity. But also, when a man is that passionate about you and being with you, it’s flattering. When he gives you all sorts of gifts and caters to you, it’s appealing. And when he apologizes after being a jerk, if you love him or think you love him, he’s promising that he’ll change and he’ll never do it again, and you want to believe him. And to some degree, some men do change, some men do go to anger management and change their ways. But most don’t. The fact is that though you feel flattered and loved and so on in the good times, when he is pampering you, bringing you random flowers, etc, the intensity you see when he cuts you off from other people(he often says because he loves you so much, etc), it’s not a good thing. And when he beats you, obviously not a good thing. But ultimately it’s like choosing a healthy diet and exercise plan or a safe diet pill over an eating disorder or another diet pill. You have to retrain yourself to some degree.

The Ideal Girlfriend

I know the ways in which I am and am not the ideal girlfriend. I am perfectly aware of the way I am, and I don’t particularly care. I know that sounds harsh. But I’m not always looking through every hair magazine, every acne treatment guide, every make up tip to try to make myself into this amazing looking thing I’m not. I’m not much into the whole make up thing, but I do use some good acne treatments just to avoid pain there. And I’m not going to priss around and take an hour to get ready beyond the time when I’m supposed to be picked up, freak out over a puddle, or anything like that. However, spiders, yes I will freak out a lot. Just one of those things. But at the same point, I watch chick flicks every once in a while. But most of the time, I’m a horror and action flick kind of girl. I can appreciate when another girl is really pretty or whatever. I’ll be honest with you instead of playing games around how I feel about something and expecting you to just figure it out. I like doing random things for people in general, but especially for whoever I’m dating at the moment. I don’t expect you to always be doting over me, and I do my own thing and expect you to be the same way to some degree. I don’t cheat, and I expect the same. If I no longer want to be there, I will tell you. I am a football fan, mostly of the giants or the packers. I watch UFC, which apparently is more rare than I once thought. If you spend more time in front of the mirror than me, I keep it to a minimum. So to some degree, I don’t care. But if it gets into an hour more than me or whatnot, I get a little worried. I do like my heels, something which sometimes guys forget, as well as my purses, because I really don’t get into most things like that. But heels and purses, even though heels can kill your feet, they look so good in some cases! So there is a girl somewhere in there, even if she’s buried very deep. I don’t generally play sports with the guy I’m with, especially soccer and rugby. I can be a little bit competitive about it, and I expect everyone to play their part and man up in a sense. And I understand that can be weird to a guy. But the biggest things I expect shallow wise are for him not to be reading up on the latest fashion magazines and acne treatment guide too much, and on a better level, for him to figure out what I do and accept it or love it or whatever.

Women Don’t Sweat

Women don’t sweat, this is one I’ve heard a lot lately. Are people stupid or just uninformed? I mean I see women all the time at the gym, and I can assure you we sweat. Why do you think we need a good acne treatment just as much as or more than the average man? It’s partly due to hormones, but men have hormones too, and that doesn’t account for all of it. Why do you think we suffer through exercise related acne just like men? It’s not a mystery. There are various groups I’ve heard “don’t sweat.” But every time, I think it’s got to be a joke, until I realize that occasionally someone is actually serious about it. Some of them are races, and it’s a question of do you really think one whole group of people has evolved to the point of not sweating ever? It’s unlikely at best, and completely laughable at worst. I mean it’s a natural human mechanism to cool the body, just as dogs panting is a natural dog mechanism to cool the body and release some heat without completely ruining the body. That aside, there are people who sweat less than others, though I know of no one who doesn’t sweat at all. It depends partly on the genetics and pores and partly on some disorders in some cases. For example my sister supposedly has a disease causing her to be super hairy, sweat a lot, have raging hormones and need a really good acne treatment, etc. I personally think it’s all a story and an excuse. But that’s just me. She’s always at the doctor for something or another, usually ending in no definable conclusion. It could also mean that those who don’t sweat as much aren’t actually consuming enough water. Different experts and individuals have different opinions on the exact reasons why.

noctural companions

So I’ve decided to get a sugar glider for my roommate from a friend of a friend.  she has to get rid of it, and my roommate is literally only awake in the wee hours of the morning.  sugar gliders, in case you haven’t heard are nocturnal.  So it’s a perfect fit,and both are actually quite social

The Truth About Chicken

The truth about chicken, many have debated this. I even heard from my mom, during one of her wild diet phases, that you shouldn’t eat chicken, because they don’t pee. Ya, they don’t pee, because they poo and pee at the same time! The author of that same book also claimed fish had a lot of mercury, Dasani and certain other bottled waters were better than others, he had all sorts of interesting ideas. Of course, we all told my mom the writer was an idiot, and she of course had to prove us wrong, even though there were basic scientific facts like oh, chickens peeing and pooing at the same time, so not directly peeing, that we could prove he was wrong on. Either way, not eating meat could contribute to some serious weight loss. They say the average vegetarian loses quite a few pounds from the time between being a vegetarian and switching over, because it’s healthier than the average American diet. Granted, that’s not saying much. But at the same point, increasing the energy levels you get from the same amount of food by focusing mostly on plants, not eating as many fats from meat, etc. could logically contribute to a healthier lifestyle in general. If you are eating ice cream and cheese all the time instead of meat, that’s probably not going to make you healthier, some food for thought. But if you do it right, it could make a definite difference. I don’t know that any toxic type of theory would hold up to reality, but weight loss in relation to the cessation of the consumption of meat does have some basis in scientific fact. It just depends on your regular eating habits and if that’s something you would actually want to do in your own life. People do it for different reasons of course, some are just more motivated toward that particular goal than others.

You Oughtta Know

I want you to know, that I’m happy for you
I wish nothing but the best for you both
An older version of me
Is she perverted like me
Would she go down on you in a theatre
Does she speak eloquently
And would she have your baby
I’m sure she’d make a really excellent mother

‘cause the love that you gave that we made wasn’t able
To make it enough for you to be open wide, no
And every time you speak her name
Does she know how you told me you’d hold me
Until you died, till you died
But you’re still alive

And I’m here to remind you
Of the mess you left when you went away
It’s not fair to deny me
Of the cross I bear that you gave to me
You, you, you oughta know

You seem very well, things look peaceful
I’m not quite as well, I thought you should know
Did you forget about me Mr. Duplicity
I hate to bug you in the middle of dinner
It was a slap in the face how quickly I was replaced
Are you thinking of me when you fuck her?

‘cause the love that you gave that we made wasn’t able
To make it enough for you to be open wide, no
And every time you speak her name
Does she know how you told me you’d hold me
Until you died, til you died
But you’re still alive

And I’m here to remind you
Of the mess you left when you went away
It’s not fair to deny me
Of the cross I bear that you gave to me
You, you, you oughta know

‘cause the joke that you laid on the bed that was me
And I’m not gonna fade
As soon as you close your eyes and you know it
And every time I scratch my nails down someone else’s back
I hope you feel it…well can you feel it

Well, I’m here to remind you
Of the mess you left when you went away
It’s not fair to deny me
Of the cross I bear that you gave to me
You, you, you oughta know
